COVID-19 updates

Updated March 13, 2020

Patients,

In response to the continuing spread
of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), CARS is carefully monitoring reports from City
of Houston, City of Corpus Christi, The World Health Organization (WHO) and the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). On January 30, WHO declared
the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. The CDC has
issued ongoing guidance
on avoiding non-essential travel to certain areas and states a particular
concern for healthcare workers and travelers returning from affected areas;
however, the immediate risk of COVID-19 is relatively low for the general
public.

It is our hope that CARS Tomball and Corpus
Christi will not be affected, but the health and safety of our patients
and staff remains paramount. CARS will continue to monitor this developing
situation and keep patients up to date.

Administration is actively in contact
with the City of Houston and City of Corpus Christi for any updates or mandates
put in place. We are also in contact with Texas State Health and Human Services
Commission for Narcotic Treatment Program. Our clinical directors are in daily
contact with administration to receive updates.

We thank you for your continued commitment and dedication as a CARS patient. Updated travel notices and guidance on precautionary measures can be accessed from the CDC, and WHO. If you have any questions, please contact CARS administration at the following:
